& her work
About Ashton
I started taking photos because I never wanted to forget how things felt.
The people. The places. The late nights. The fleeting moments that somehow end up meaning the most.
These days, I photograph weddings with the same mindset. I'm less interested in perfection and more interested in connection. I want your photographs to feel like you. Honest, emotional, a little messy, and full of life.
When I'm not behind the camera, I'm usually listening to live music, exploring somewhere new, or spending time with people I love.
At the end of the day, I believe photographs are more than memories. They're a way back.
And that's exactly why I do this.

From our initial consultation to the final delivery of your images, I am committed to exceeding your expectations and creating an experience that is as memorable and enjoyable as your wedding day itself.
Commitment to Excellence
Your wedding photographer is with you through some of the most intimate moments of the day. I believe the best photographs happen when there's a real connection and a genuine sense of comfort behind the camera
experience built on trust
Less posing. Less performance. More presence. I focus on preserving the atmosphere, the people, and the moments in between. The result is imagery that feels lived in rather than staged.
DOCUMENTARY APPROACH
No two weddings are the same, and I don't believe your experience should be either. I take the time to get to know you, understand what matters most, and learn how your day will unfold. The result is an experience that feels relaxed, collaborative, and true to who you are, allowing you to be fully present.
PERSONAL & INTENTIONAL
We understand that selecting the right photographer is one of the most important decisions you'll make for your wedding day.
